SHOWING YOU HOW TO LET GO OF WHAT DOESN'T WORK AND HELPING YOU DISCOVER WHAT DOES

Get your mind geared up and get my FREE Tips! 19 Things You Will Want to Do if You Are Serious About Weight Loss and a Healthier Lifestyle!

My Mission

Knowing what is important to you and why. Whatever your health, diet and fitness goals may be, I will simplify your journey to help you make it happen. It is my belief that exercise and a healthier diet can be fun and rewarding with the right guidance and an open mind!

MINDSET

Are those voices in your head kind, or critical? Do you believe in your goals or doubt yourself? I strongly believe that permanent change can only happen when we change our wiring and it’s an inside job. Some say it’s too scary, I say get honest. I want to influence you to embrace the inner work so that you can be free of the repetitive struggle.

HABITS

We all have them. Some make our life better, while others work against us. Once we accept that what we’re doing (or not doing) is making us miserable, we need to dig in, find the facts, and choose some replacement behaviors. I will be a judgement-free support for you, while we get you comfortably uncomfortable. Let’s tweak some stuff so you can quit beating yourself up!

YOUR DIET

This isn’t about perfection or deprevation, it’s about small changes that will make you feel better so you can live better. Good health isn’t owed to us, and neither is a lean body. Like anything we want to make better, we have to first pay attention. I want you to get curious, experiment with food, and examine your beliefs about weight loss so food doesn’t have to be the enemy anymore.

EXERCISE

If this word brings up anxiety or guilt for you, it’s time to change that so you can move forward with your health goals. I promise that if you come with your mind open, you can learn to love exercise! I will teach you safe and effective movement so you can gain confidence enough to go to any gym without that feeling of insecurity. Side note for extra motivation: Exercise is a prescription for almost all things health! Such a win!

People tell me their biggest fear about the gym is "looking stupid". The good news is, confidence and knowledge can be learned!

I’m all about perfect food and perfect bodies. No wait, just kidding. I’m all about you.

Where you’ve been and where you want to go.

Your current obstacles.

What you’re willing to do and not willing to do.

How you want your journey to feel.

Because when you’re willing to dig deep, you get deep rewards.

Testimonials

I admire my clients and am continually grateful for not only their trust, but for how much they inspire me.

If you have heard of the expression “Starting at ground zero”, my start with Robin was sub-ground zero. Both my Chiropractor, and my message therapist had issued stern warnings regarding the mal alignment of my back/hips and the abnormal tension in my muscles. Robin and I started with routine “core muscle” pilates/ yoga. In the first weeks, I was very impressed by the combination of muscle strengthening coupled with flexibility. Within the first month of weekly sessions, I could feel my hips balance and gain normal movement during activity as simple as walking through the grocery store. Once my core strength and flexibility were improved, Robin and I began work on balance with lower and upper body exercises. Over the first months of working with Robin, my Chiropractor noted nearly complete balanced alignment of my hips and leg length. My message therapist noted my improved muscle tone. Most telling, is the fact that I have not experienced incapacitating back pain for nearly a year. I am entering my later thirties with better overall body fitness than I had when I was younger. I can run or hike without the dreaded “shin splints”, I am playing single digit handicap golf, and I have no problem keeping up with my young old son.

I want to take a moment to thank Robin McIntire for walking this journey with me. Encouragement with gentle confrontation, new ideas explored and suggested, old patterns examined and challenged. Robin is great at asking the next level question that always makes me think! I appreciate the fact that Robin is always researching, studying, learning. Makes me want to do the same. And she starts where I am, not where she might think I should be! Thanks, Robin! I appreciate you!!

I worked with Robin one on one only a few times due to my own crazy travel schedule not allowing me to stay close to home. In those few personal sessions we had, I was amazingly impressed with her thorough assessment of various muscle imbalances I had from past injuries. She took the time to address the issues, customizing my workouts to accommodate the needs of my body and my schedule. I would highly recommend her to those in great shape looking to improve their energy levels, appearance or performance, as well as those struggling with recovery issues from accidents or illness. She has extensive knowledge and a great heart that shows in everything she does!

Robin McIntire lovingly, kindly, caught my insecurity and addressed it. She encouraged me to reach for the person I wanted to be. She is so much more than a “trainer.” I always left my training sessions feeling my new muscles. But I left with so much more. Robin is an excellent trainer. And she’s an excellent life coach, and inspiration. She held me accountable in loving, kind, joyful ways. I think that anyone can tell you how to lift weights. But it takes a special person who can come along side, be friend, coach, confidante, inspiration. Robin tuned in to what motivated me. And she brought me joy and confidence. I joked sometimes that I had a little tiny “Robin” on my shoulder, whispering in my ear between sessions. And her voice in my ear helped me make better choices as I anticipated my next session with her. I can easily say that I am a better person for having worked with Robin McIntire. And I know that I will have the blessing of working with her again in the future. She taught me about body image, patience, grace, and strength. She’s a joyful, loving influence and I count myself blessed that I have known her and worked with her. Robin, thank you for joining me on my journey. Thank you for being friend, mentor, coach. Warmly, Katie Klinger.

My name is Pat, and I am a client of Robin McIntire for the past year and a half. I am in my early sixties and had never worked out. Robin carefully and thoroughly explained the how’s and why’s of the exercises she taught me as well as explaining the benefits of each. She was also very conscientious about pulling together routines that would work around my knee injury. She has always answered every question I have asked, whether it was about diet, health, or exercise technique. Robin truly cares about her clients. She even accompanied me to my physical therapist. Her knowledge of physical fitness and health has helped me to achieve physical, mental, and emotional gains. I am a new woman thanks to Robin. I couldn’t have done it without her. I highly recommend Robin McIntire as a personal trainer. I look forward to many more healthy years with Robin.

It’s hard to express in words the impact that Robin has had on our lives.My husband suffered a brain aneurysm and stroke three and a half years ago leaving him with significant impairment on his right side. He can’t walk without the aide of a walker and has very little awareness of his right side. When his physical therapist shaid she could no longer “justify” billing insurance and working with my husband, it left us in a very dark and hopeless place. How were we going to keep him strong enough to do the few things he was able to do without continued physical therapy?I then recalled meeting Robin McIntire a month prior to my husband’s dismissal from Physical Therapy, and from that meeting I knew that she was a personal trainer. Not knowing if his needs fit in with her expertise as a personal trainer, I nervously called with the hope that she might consider the challenge of working with my husband. To our amazement, Robin no only considered accepting my husband as a client, but she met with his physical therapist during his last two appointments, took notes, asked pertinent questions and took videos of their sessions for further reference.
I knew then that this was the person I wanted working with my husband and could only hope it was a fit for Robin as well. Fortunately, she opened herself to the challenges of accepting the needs of a stroke victim as her client. That dark, unknown place we were coming from turned into the most positive and encouraging place imaginable.My husband looks forward to each of Robin’s visits even though he knows how hard he must work to do what most of us take for granted. She brings a “can do” caring spirit into our home each week. Robin has not only kept my husband from losing any physical strength and mobility, she has been able to increase his upper body strength and restore his hope to be the best he can be. And, as a full time caregiver, Robin has been my mentor too.Her compassion, patience, and strong belief in making each day a day to embrace all the good one can find in their lives has had a positive impact on both my husband’s life and mine. For us, Robin is a treasure we have been blessed with.

But I know what to do, I'm just not doing it!

Unexplained low back pain. How many people do you know who experience and talk about it? Unfortunately, it’s one of the most common issues I see. You can sit on a bench at the mall or the airport and watch hundreds of people walk by that are in obvious discomfort, right? If you’re one of[…]

(Click here to watch video) Mornings can feel rushed and out of control so quickly, and breakfast can either be tossed out altogether, or it can be a side-gig on the fly, with common processed food that has very little nutritional value. The donuts, danishes, and drive-thru items every once in a while aren’t a[…]

“As soon as ______________, I’ll start my fitness and weight loss journey.” Sound familiar? You know that changing things up is a must if you don’t want to accept what’s happening with your body and your health, but life just won’t slow down and give you the time. But here’s the truth: you[…]

What’s the number one reason we should exercise? I say it’s because we can. We’re capable, and it’s a gift, that’s why. There are many great reasons to exercise, but what if we just look at this one reason? My heart keeps telling me I need to share this because I think we all need[…]

This week, I’m experimenting and being a little more spontaneous with what time I choose to work out. I just had a thought as I was exercising at an unusual time of day for me; I need to share my answer to a question that I’ve answered for many clients. What’s the best time of[…]

Let’s talk about making negative statements vs. asking empowering questions. This has become one of my favorite and most helpful life lessons; it’s great for keeping us out of the victim mentality and into taking responsibility for our lives. Awareness is always the first step, so here’s my first question; Do you make negative statements[…]

We are responsible for our mood, so let’s keep it working in our favor! Do you have those days or moments when you catch yourself in a funk and seem like you just can’t kick it? You want to be in a better mood but can’t get yourself there? I believe that we all[…]

Healthy Habits can become automatic, just like brushing your teeth. Habits. We have healthy ones that serve us and others that absolutely don’t. When we admit which is which and commit to change, it’s only crazy-hard if we choose to see it that way. (Yep, I’m pulling the Mindset card!) I believe that when we[…]
